The Black Ice PDF 417 Barcode
SDK/ActiveX toolkit allows developers to add 2D PDF 417 writing
to their applications. The Black Ice PDF 417 Barcode
Reading SDK/ActiveX toolkit is a robust and efficient 2D PDF 417
library of reading/decoding, searching barcodes,
and detecting barcode orientation functions.
PDF 417, or
Portable Data File 417, is a two-dimensional stacked bar code
capable of encoding over a kilobyte of data per label. This is
useful for situations when a bar code will be used to store a
substantial amount of data about an item, allowing developers to
avoid database interaction. Since a PDF 417 barcode symbol can store
a substantial amount of information, item specific data, such as the
content of a shipping manifest or equipment maintenance history, can
be stored directly on the item, without requiring access to a
database.
Encoding data into a PDF417 bar code is
a two-step process. First, data is converted into codeword values of
0 - 928, which represent the data. This is “high-level encoding."
Then the values are physically represented by particular bar/space
patterns, which is “low-level encoding." Decoding is the reverse
process.

The Black Ice PDF 417 Barcode
SDK/ActiveX toolkits are written to be image toolkit independent, and can be
used with any Black Ice imaging toolkit, such as the
TIFF SDK/ActiveX, the
Image SDK/ActiveX, or the
Document Imaging SDK/ActiveX. They can also be used with any
third party imaging platform.
Sample
Applications:
The PDF 417 Barcode SDK/ActiveX contains a variety of sample applications,
which demonstrate the capabilities and features of the toolkit.
The product is fully .NET compatible and also provides sample source
code written in C#, VB.NET, and J# to demonstrate the powerful document
conversion options.
